There's a big problem with handling the movie's lenght. There are innecesary scenes on it, but strong points also. The performances from Ulliel & Garrel are the highlight of the movie, so it is the Production Design and Costume Design.

A near-anthropological examination, shot with exquisite attention to time and place, and benefiting from a large, talented cast and obviously generous budget, "Saint Laurent" is a true feast for the eyes and mind. Warning: includes graphic depictions of sex and drug use.… Expand

Honest, sexy, and beautifully shot behind the scenes film of the galmorous world of high fashion at its most sordid and titillating. The drugs use and promiscuity perfectly depicted. Acting was great. The film could have been shorter.

Excluding two extraordinary scenes featuring Aymeline Valade and Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, SAINT LAURENT is all surface and no insight. After 150 minutes of rich drug abuse, I just got bored. The film lacks any central conceit so you're lostExcluding two extraordinary scenes featuring Aymeline Valade and Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, SAINT LAURENT is all surface and no insight. After 150 minutes of rich drug abuse, I just got bored. The film lacks any central conceit so you're lost and mired in a lot of "stuff." Sadly, the director has no cohesive vision about the man who was SAINT LAURENT.… Expand

Spoiled boy, animal , designer, brand, visionary, addict, and madmanIn 1967, the message to women, beauty is happiness. Mousse, music, detail, perfection, muses, loves, and fixations blend in fashion and fiction in the film Saint Laurent. Spoiled boy, animal , designer, brand, visionary, addict, and madman is Saint Laurent. But as Laurent loses his way to sex, drugs and fame - so does the film. However, the comeback, where past and present, inspiration and artistic creation, converge under Benello’s direction with Deshaies cinematography and Romand’s costumes capture an hallucinatory essense of YSL. In the end, beauty is not happiness.… Expand
